Hi Dan,

I've noticed that Google Translate uses <base> tags to make sure that
relative links still work.

For example, if you translate www.google.com, you'll find <base
href="http://www.google.com/"; /> in the resulting HTML.

It seems your site already has a base tag, so maybe Google has a bug
and isn't dealing with your base tag right?

Best,
Josh
